Science is successfully able to clone dinosaurs! They create dozens of them, and decide to put them on an island, where they can roam in a habitat similar to what they knew when they walked the earth. A known cell phone company decides that they can turn this into a tourist industry, and they create a structure on the island that allows people to come visit the dinosaurs safely. However, it's safe as long as the security features are operational. This cell phone company is your cell phone provider. How confident are you that this dinosaur kingdom will remain safe for humans?
| Very confident. I trust my provider |
   3 (5.3%) |
| Reasonably confident. Surely they'll take this seriously and not fuck it up |
| 15 (26.3%) |
| Not very confident. There are times my cell phone doesn't work like it should |
| 17 (29.8%) |
| No confidence. If they run dinosaur island like they do my cell phone, there will be pandemonium before the week is through |

They clone so many dinosaurs, that McDonalds gets in on the action. They come out with a new kind of McNugget: the McPteradactyl. And their new McRibs are now made from brontasaurus. What are your odds of patronizing McDonalds in the future?
| Excellent. I really really wanna try dinosaur |
| 13 (22.8%) |
| Good. I am curious about the new meats, and I think their food in general is decent enough |
| 5 (8.8%) |
| Good. Regardless of what they do, I'm a big fan of McDonalds, even if I'm not so crazy about eating giant lizards |
| 0 (0.0%) |
| Poor. I don't go to McDonalds normally, and I won't start now |
| 24 (42.1%) |
| Poor. I would hate the fact they're turning these large beasts into vittles |

The fashion world also gets into dinosaur apparel. Velociraptor leather becomes THE fashion fabric, and the newest clothing retailer is called Jurassic Parka. Will you be wearing dino duds?
| Sure will, if everybody else is too |
| 8 (14.0%) |
| No, I don't wear leather |
| 20 (35.1%) |
| No, I won't clothes made from real live Barneys |

The NRA gets in on it too and pressures Congress to make it legal to hunt and kill dinosaurs. There's no hunting parks where people show up with guns and can shoot and 'bag' a dinosaur (one per patron). How would you feel about this development?
| Where do I sign up? |

| Indifferent. Gun nuts will kill anything if it's available, won't they? |
| 17 (29.8%) |
| Hating it. Those poor dinosaurs |
